Nike Inc.

NIKE, based near Beaverton, Ore., is the world's leading designer, marketer and distributor of authentic athletic footwear, apparel, equipment and accessories for a wide variety of sports and fitness activities. Wholly owned Nike subsidiaries include Converse Inc., which designs, markets and distributes athletic footwear, apparel and accessories and Hurley International LLC, which designs, markets and distributes action sports and youth lifestyle footwear, apparel and accessories.

NIKE was a founding member of BICEP, recognizing that investing in innovative solutions to reduce the impact of climate change and energy dependence cannot be done alone. "Solutions must be found by sharing knowledge, mobilizing resources, harnessing new technologies, lobbying governments and encouraging consumers to participate in the race against climate change," NIKE said.

“For the type of scale the world needs to see, we need not only the business leaders to do what they do best – investing in innovation and shaping market forces – we need government to play a crucial role in creating policies, legislation and regulation that will enable the scaling of transformative change.”
